NASA canceled VIPER mission due to budget constraints affecting completion and testing, seeking partners for future lunar missions.

Intuitive Machines plans to land its spacecraft Odysseus on the moon, potentially becoming the first commercial moon landing.

The mission is part of Intuitive Machines' Nova-C class landers, which will carry commercial payloads and NASA instruments as part of the CLPS program.

The Intuitive Machines-1 (IM-1) mission is en route to the Moon to place a lander called Odysseus on its surface, aiming to become the first private lander on the Moon.

The CLPS program, which aims to make lunar trips more frequent and less expensive, encountered a setback when the Peregrine lander from Astrobotic suffered a propulsion anomaly and had to be self-destructed.
